The USA Network announced today that the network has ordered a 7th season pick up for the popular drama, Suits. The Universal Cable Production series was a steady performer last season, averaging about 3M viewers. The sixth season is currently airing Wednesdays at 9/8c.

SUITS has centered on the fast-paced Manhattan corporate law firm‎, Pearson Specter Litt — but last season, their world was shaken to its core when Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams) signed a two-year plea deal admitting his fraud to spare his colleagues Harvey (Gabriel Macht), Jessica (Gina Torres) and Louis (Rick Hoffman).

In Season 6, Mike deals with the harsh realities of prison life, while his relationship with his fiancé Rachel (Meghan Markle) and the future of the firm is unknown. With Pearson Specter Litt’s troubles at a peak,‎ Donna (Sarah Rafferty) must help bring them all together to not only save the firm, but also the friendships they have all dedicated their entire career and lives to.
